London, Nov 28 (IANS) Actor Johnny Depp has banned the use of phones in his house in France because he wants to spend time with his family without any disturbance.

The Hollywood actor shares the luxury home in the country with his partner Vanessa Paradis and their two children, reports contactmusic.com.

‘When I’m at our house in France I totally cut myself off from the rest of the world. I never have to listen to phones ringing and that’s because – and Vanessa would confirm this – phones are banned from the house,’ said Depp.

‘We have a beautiful life and I feel that spending time in France has just calmed me down and made me stop worrying about things which aren’t really important,’ he added.
